Chapter 229 Xia Xia
"Stop hitting, stop hitting, I was wrong." Concubine Rou moaned weakly.The surrounding men in black stood aside without any reaction. Fortunately, the nun in front of her was beating a dog, which had nothing to do with them at all.They will still be touched at the beginning, but after seeing them a lot, they will be completely familiar with it.

"You bastard, now, get up and get me a bucket of water and wash all the clothes in the yard!" The old mother stood up from Concubine Rou when she was tired, patted the dust on her body, and still It's that bossy look.Concubine Rou saw that the old nanny stopped beating her, so she didn't care about her self-esteem, so she got up from the ground and fetched a bucket of water before walking away. "Are you new here?" The old nanny looked Duanmuyao up and down, and her first reaction was when did the emperor take such a good thing, even the little girl could do it.The next step is to observe Duanmuyao's clothes and see if he can get some benefits from eating Duanmuyao.

"That's right, I'm new here." Duan Muyao nodded without paying attention to the old mammy's staring eyes.

"Newcomers must follow the rules of newcomers. Take out any valuables on your body." The old mother put her hands on her hips and stretched them out in front of Duanmuyao. She dared to ask for money directly!Seeing that the man in black didn't make any moves, Duanmuyao knew that as long as she didn't die or maim or run away, they wouldn't care about what happened next.I had to take off a bracelet from my wrist, it was not a high-end item, but because the pattern was rather peculiar, I bought it and wore it after looking at it a few more times.

The concubines who are usually sent here don't have any oil or water, they are all peeled off layer by layer in the middle, and finally come to this cold palace. Even if they come, they only have a pair of earrings and a few hairpins, which are not worth much Only Duanmuyao's jade bracelet seems to be worth a few dollars.All of a sudden, the old mother took the bracelet happily, and forgot what a eunuch told her last night, and made things difficult for all the people who had just arrived in the cold palace.

"Okay, I see you are also a person who understands the rules, let's go down." After finishing speaking, the old nanny ignored Duan Muyao, happily took the bracelet and left.

Duanmuyao turned around, carrying the bucket, a rope was tied to the mouth of the well, she had to tie the bucket to the rope and throw it down to get water.In the previous life, because Yu'er was by her side, fetching water was all undertaken by Yu'er for her.She's all alone now.

Thinking of Duanmuyao, he felt a little funny, and shook his head, could it be that she couldn't even hit a piece of water without Yu'er by her side? Thinking of Duanmuyao lifting the rope from the water, one end of the rope was a bit wet because it was soaked in the water. moist.Tie the rope to the wooden barrel, and when it was thrown into the well, the water in the well made waves, and there was only a splash, Duanmuyao felt that the sound was not right, so he looked down and it was true.Because there is no fastening relationship, the bucket and the rope have been separated, and a bucket is floating on the water alone.

Duanmuyao twitched the corners of her mouth, the well was relatively deep, and the mouth of the well was a few meters away from the water surface, which was definitely out of her reach. She got up from the well and looked at the men in black, but the men in black clasped their arms across their chests. I don't care what it looks like. "Don't you guys care about that too?" Duan Muyao was slightly annoyed. "As long as it doesn't endanger the safety of the Princess, we don't need any help." The man in black said, be angry, be angry, now he wants Duanmuyao to be angry, he can't stand this damn place.

"Did your bucket fall into the well?" Just when Duanmuyao was about to get angry, a milky voice sounded behind Duanmuyao. Duanmuyao turned around and turned out to be a little girl, obviously dressed as a court lady He is also carrying a big bucket in his hand, but at the age of four or five, it looks as awkward as it is to carry a bucket.

"That's right, my bucket fell into it, who are you?" Duan Muyao became interested, she didn't know that there were girls of her age in the palace.Because the only children in the palace are the emperor's princes, the child in front of him in tattered palace clothes is obviously not the emperor's child, but who is she? Children from other families.

"I'm Xia Xia, let me help you bring up the bucket." The little girl's voice was childish with a hint of clarity. "Xia Xia?" Duan Muyao searched the memory of his previous life, but there was no little girl named Xia Xia, where did she come from, Duan Muyao frowned.Why did she suddenly appear when she needed help? Duan Muyao looked suspiciously at the little girl in front of her. The buns on her head were combed into two small buns. Not very good.

The little girl looked at Duanmuyao the whole time, stared at her for a while, and blinked her big watery eyes in confusion, "Sister, why are you looking at me?" "No reason, how can you help?" I'll get the bucket back, I'm taller than you and I can't get it back." Duan Muyao temporarily retracted his doubts and asked with a smile.

"I have a solution." Xia Xia smiled, put down the bucket in her hand and ran quickly to the edge of a bush, fumbled out a bamboo pole from the grass, and there was a small hook on the bamboo pole, Xia Xia Xian Bao As if holding the bamboo pole in front of Duanmuyao, "Sister, when I first started fetching water, I was just like you. I would often drop the bucket into the water. Then I thought, take a bamboo pole and put a hook on it, and you can The bucket came out of it."

Xia Xia smiled innocently, ran to the well a few times and hooked up the bucket. When she was about to hand it to Duan Muyao, a woman dressed as a woman not far away screamed when she saw this scene , "Xia Xia!"|The woman rushed up, originally trying to pull Duan Muyao and Xia Xia apart, but accidentally bumped into the bucket, and some of the water in the bucket inevitably hit Xia Xia's body.All of a sudden Xia Xia's clothes were wet.

"Xia Xia, how are you?" The woman checked Xia Xia up and down, and after confirming that Xia Xia was fine, she hugged Xia Xia in her arms. "Mother, Xia Xia is fine, Xia Xia is fine." Xia Xia pouted her small mouth, and placed her white and tender hands on the hair of the lady, stroking it every now and then.

"Xia Xia, why have you been away for so long? Mother thought something happened to you." Madam patted her chest and said with lingering fear. "Mother, this sister's bucket fell into the water just now, I helped her out." Xia Xia pointed at Duan Muyao and smiled. "Oh, so that's how it is." The woman looked at Duan Muyao with alert eyes.

"Hello." Facing such eyes, Duan Muyao really didn't know what to say.

"En." The woman nodded. Although she was surprised why Duanmuyao was here, she didn't seem too interested. After she nodded, she hugged Xiaxia, "Come on, mother will take you back to change clothes, but Don't catch a cold."

"Okay." Xia Xia nodded.

"Who is she?" Duan Muyao asked as he saw his wife carrying the little girl away from her back.

"The ones locked here are the concubines of the harem." The man in black replied.

But this is unscientific, she has never seen this person in the cold palace. "Their mother and daughter have always lived in the depths of the cold palace, and few people would provoke them, and they rarely go out." He Hei the man in black answered her doubts for Duan Muyao.

"Oh." Duan Muyao nodded, and picked up the bucket from the ground, as well as the bucket of the girl named Xia Xia.This time she tied it tight and brought two buckets full of water.Take one bucket back to wash the pavilion, and put the other bucket by the well.
